Le tacot du Boeuf à la Mode

Old car Versailles Boeuf à la mode
Seen last week on the queen's boulevard. Dunno what it is... Update: thanks to the comments, VDP now knows that this is a Juva 4! The restaurant that owns it was photographed here!

Vu la semaine dernière boulevard de la reine. VDP ne sait pas ce que c'est. Mise à jour : grâce aux commentaires, VDP sait maintenant qu'il s'agit d'une Juvaquatre ! Merci les amis ! Le resto, lui, avait été photographié ici !

  2. It's a lovely vehicle. I'd guess it's from the 1930s as it looks a lot like my first car, a 1937 Chevy.

    I don't quite understand why it is parked facing a different direction than the cars behind it. Maybe it's a Versailles thing? :)

  3. They didn't put a name on it but if it has a hole for a crank so it is probably 1940s or so. It would be fun to drive around your streets I expect.

    Very retro looking, your last photo probably puts it back into its original era too!

  13. Hi Ciel: Re your not-knowing about bedliners: Many pickup truck drivers want to protect the bed of the truck so they buy special rubber/plastic bedliners, but there is a spray which can be used to put a protective coat on the bed of the truck.

    BTW, this stupid spell-correction thing kept changing "bedliner" to "berliner." Thought you'd appreciate that!
